irishmirror.ie

A woman named Nikita Hand has filed a civil lawsuit against UFC fighter Conor McGregor, alleging he choked her three times and raped her in a hotel suite in February 2018. Hand claims she felt she would not survive the encounter. The case has drawn attention due to a previous decision by the Director of Public Prosecutions not to charge McGregor, citing insufficient evidence. Hand expressed feeling let down by this decision and initiated her civil claim in October 2020. During court proceedings, Hand detailed the alleged assault, describing moments of fear and confusion. The trial continues, with McGregor's legal team cross-examining her about inconsistencies in her account.
